Camping!

So we are back from our camping trip to the Island! It was interesting to say the least!! We forgot our air mattress so we had to buy another one. The weather was nice (we were at Longbeach) but cool in the evening. I even got a tan. Gadzooks! That is unheard of for me! Ben was pretty good, though. Considering everything was out of sorts, and he wasn't in his crib at home, he did great.

We have a WONDERFUL tent thanks to Mike's parents, a three room Woods tent, so Ben had his own "room" with his playpen for him to sleep. Was nice to have him right beside us where he could see us. There was an area for the dogs to sleep, and Ben got to crawl around in there (as opposed to eating rocks outside!) It was sure a lot of work, though. Wouldn't have been able to do it without my wonderful Mother-in-law! Wow! She is/was such a big help!!

I think the poor guy was just starting to come down with something during the trip though as he was pretty fussy sometimes and didn't want to sleep. Must be more teeth coming in.. he had a fever for a couple days when we came home but he is tip-top now!

Mike and his brother got to go surfing! Don't have pics yet to share, but will soon! He had a blast :D
